Description:

Learn to wow your audience as you explore theatre and performance in one of Canada’s most creative drama programs. In the classroom, courses in performance, production, design, direction, and management will give you the technical tools to excel at your craft. Meanwhile, complementary courses in politics, race, gender, theory, technology, and aesthetics will help you decide what messages matter. By the time you graduate, you’ll have a rich portfolio to take into the world of theatre, plus a range of creative, analytical, and management skills that will serve you well in any number of roles, on stage or off.

Apply to Honours Arts and Business and choose Theatre and Performance as your major at the end of first year. By alternating school terms and paid co-op work terms throughout your degree, you can explore new career areas and types of employers as your career interests evolve. Co-op is available if you study Theatre and Performance through Honours Arts and Business.
